The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Being a student at Boston prep there have been a lot of ups and down. Though the is a great sense of community at Boston Prep is great and inviting it doesn't help the fact that the rules and ways of the school make it feel less like a school and more like a job.

Boston Prep is a very academic driven school which also pushes important ethical and social values. The school promises college readiness and if students are open and willing to engage in the process they will very much be college ready both mentally and academically due to the rigor of s classes offered at the school and the staff whom guide the students.
